The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wealden local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three LOFT COTTAGE sales between June 2009 and September 2021 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the December 2012 sale was for 15% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% above the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it falls to 9% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% above the HPI.
